Pacifism in Islam

Pacifism in Islam is the idea that it is wrong to use violence to solve problems or get what you want. Instead, peaceful solutions and understanding should be used to try to reach an agreement and be kind to each other. Practicing pacifism in Islam is following the rules of Islam which say that killing or hurting someone without a good reason is wrong. Muslims who practice pacifism choose not to fight in wars, try to settle disputes peacefully, and do whatever they can to avoid violence as much as possible.
